Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
Wherever you see an x on the right, you put a 16. That's what f(16) means.
f(16) = 1/3 (4 - 16)^2
f(16) = 1/3 (- 12)^2
f(16) = 1/3 (144)
f(16) = 48

There are 20 parrots at the animal sanctuary. Their population is increasing at a rate of 15% per year. There are also 24 snakes

For the answer to the questions above,
A) Parrots are following a Geometric Progression of 15% increase.

20(1.15), 20(1.15)², 20(1.15)³,

Function = 20(1.15)^n Where n is at the end of year, n =1, 2, 3, ..

Snakes are increasing by 4.

28, 32, 36,....

Function = 24 + 4n n = number of end year, n =1, 2, 3,...

B) After 10 years: 
Parrot = 20(1.15)¹⁰ = 80.91115471

Snakes = 24 + 4(10) = 64

C) After what time they are the same: 
We use trial and error:

Test: n 20(1.15^n) (24 + 4n)
 1 23 28
 2 26.45 32
 3 30.41 36 
 4 34.98 40
 5 40.23 44
 6 46.26 48
 7 53.20 52
 8 61.18 56
 9 70.36 60

After year 7, the Parrots increases far more.
At year 7 they are roughly the same.

7 times a number is 8 less than the square of that number. Find the negative solution.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The required relation is ...

7n = n^2 -8

0 = n^2 -7n -8 . . . . put in standard form

0 = (n -8)(n +1) . . . . factor

Solutions are n=8 and n=-1.
